I Refused To Be Reincarnated
"In order to survive the future great war, we must take drastic measures. We need to summon warriors and train them before time runs out." Thus, millions of earthlings were reincarnated in an alien, medieval world governed by swords and magic to save its prophesied doom. Among those individuals, one's situation inexplicably deviated from the others. Thrust into a rotting house in a ghostly body, Adam found himself bound to a wailing baby. With a heavily damaged soul and the snarky remarks of a system, he began his years-long quest to recover his body. Armed with his mind, he'll educate the baby and slowly watch him turn into a good youth. However, he would have to make a choice: suffer as a ghost until he finds an alternative that might not exist, or possess his body and reincarnate. He was far from imagining how dangerous this world full of possibilities could be, prompting him to question everything he knew... Including himself and this world's intentionally blurred history. ********************************************** Discord server: https://discord.gg/ubzzKM5wfp Note: The MC is not a supporting character.

The Haunting Decision
Julius knew picking the second option would be no different from selling his brother as a slave, not to mention the duration. A millennium was too long.
But the first option was a risky bet, too. After all, once he agreed, what guarantee did he have the ghost king wouldn't kill him and turn him into a ghost on the spot?
'I don't know,' he thought, despair creeping into his young heart. Yet, he had to make a choice. One with lasting consequences for both of them, no less.
Sweat dripping from his forehead, he gathered his courage and asked, "What prevents you from turning me into a ghost on the spot after I pick the first option?"
"Lies are banned from my territory, and I only speak truths," answered the ghost king, a smile tugging at his lips. Then, after seeing the boy's sceptical expression, he added. "If you are unconvinced, I can take a soul oath."
